Answer:

Explanation:

Message will travel through the fibre at the speed of 3 x 10⁸ m /s which is also the speed of light .

a ) Time for a message to travel from US to France by using glass fibre  link

time  = distance / speed

= 6000 x 1000 / 3 x 10⁸

= .02 s .

b )

22000 miles = 1.6 x 22000

= 35200 km

Time for a message to travel from US to France by using a satellite link

time = distance / velocity

 distance = 2 x √ ( 35200² + 3000² )

=  2 x 35327 km

= .7 x 10⁸ m .

time = .7 x 10⁸ / 3 x 10⁸

= .233 s

c )

Difference of time = .233 - .02

= .213 which is more than 1/6 s for which effect of hearing stays in the brain , which is called persistence of vision .  So they will be heard as different sounds.

A student has a small metal sphere that hangs from an insulating string. The student, in seeking to determine the charge on the
Leokris [45]

Answer:

the answer the correct one is c

Explanation:

Electric charges of different signs attract and those of the same sign repel. In addition, there are two types of insulating bodies, where the loads are fixed (immobile) and metallic (with mobile loads.

Let's analyze the situation presented

* A rod with positive approaches and the sphere is attracted, so the charge on the sphere is negative

* A rod with a negative charge approaches and the sphere is attracted, therefore the charge of the sphere must be positive.

For this to happen, the sphere must be unloaded and the charge that creates the phenomenon are induced charges because the mobile charges of the same sign as the sphere are repelled.

when checking the answer the correct one is c

A dog walks 24 steps north and then walks 55 steps west to bury a bone. If the dog walks back to the starting point in a straigh
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The dog should walk 60 steps to the southeast to return to its starting point.

Explanation:

To solve the present mathematical problem, we must use the Pythagorean theorem. This establishes that in right triangles the sum of their squared legs is equal to the hypotenuse squared, that is:

A ^ 2 + B ^ 2 = X ^ 2

Thus, in the case, the calculation would be the following:

24 ^ 2 + 55 ^ 2 = X ^ 2

576 + 3,025 = X ^ 2

√3,601 = X

60 = X

Therefore, the dog should walk 60 steps to the southeast to return to its starting point.
